     At the speed of light, you flicked your head in the direction of the nearest clock.

     9:07

     9:07

     9:07!!

     The seven men stood in a cluster both in and outside of the dorm, the only reason they hadn't came in being that the few in the front froze in place upon entrance. Jin, Hoseok, and Yoongi stood in the doorway, blocking the view of the other four members. They just stared at you and your parents in shock and confusion. Everyone was silent.

     "What's the hold up," a familiar voice spoke from the back, only worsening your panic. The group of boys began to split apart as someone pushed through, your heartbeat quickening with each member that was shoved aside. You were highly tempted to just hop up out of your seat and throw yourself out the window as means to escape your impending doom, but your body wouldn't cooperate. When Namjoon emerged from the group of boys, you expected to find yourself staring into the face of death and pure rage itself, compacted with fine craftsmanship into the body of that one man and detailed with a murderous glint reflecting off of his eyes beholding a glare sharp enough to cut you open and sever your insides. You were completely ready for the world around you to fall apart and burst into life with flames of hell as Namjoon would then approach you and continue to murder you, then bring you back to life, and then murder you again.

     However, you were simply met by a confused looking man, who scratched his head and gave your family a weird look.

     "Oh, uh, I guess we have visitors," Namjoon then took a look around the rectangle room, examining every corner. "Who cleaned?"

     You could have fainted.

     "Y/N, who are these people?" Jin asked you with a curious expression.

     "Um, this is my family. They wanted to visit, so I cleaned up and let them come over. I didn't imagine they would still be here when you got back, I must have lost track of time," you explained hurriedly, still shooting worried glances at Namjoon who had yet to express any form of anger.

     "Oh, well that's alright. You could have told us first though," Jin stated.

     "Well, you see, I would have, but I don't exactly have any means of doing so." you looked at Jungkook for barely a second after saying that, knowing that you did have his phone number. Jimin saw your quick glance and gave you a suspicious look, as anything you did that had any relations to Jungkook made him go into detective mode. He let it go quickly though since, after observing you for a while, he had taken note of the fact that you tend to glance around a lot. It was probably a mere coincidence.

     Jin chuckled. "You're right. Perhaps we should have given you a way to contact us before expecting you to. We'll have to do that later."

     All of Bangtan let out a few awkward giggles that soon faded into an even more awkward silence. Everyone shuffled a bit in their places and generally seemed uncomfortable.

     "Well, ah, we'll just be on our way then," your father spoke up, pushing himself into a standing position.

     "So sorry to intrude," your mother said somewhat bashfully.

     Your family bade you farewell and were out the door all too soon. The boys hadn't shown any signs of anger, but you knew they were good actors. You immediately began to fear their second reaction. Once again, visions of the gates of hell opening and swallowing you up danced through your head. You could have sworn you could actually hear the window shouting "Come on! Jump!"
